DCF last saw girl with troubled mother in December, now police can’t find them​

A 34-year-old mother and her four-year-old daughter vanished in Miami and the law enforcement community was searching for them on Wednesday.

Officer Michael Vega, a spokesman for the Miami Police Department, said detectives fear four-year-old Carolina Rodriguez may be in danger.

“We have got the FBI, we’ve got DCF, we’ve got other local agencies helping us out,” Vega said on Wednesday.

The Florida Department of Children and Families last saw Carolina and her mother Carolina Vizcarra on Dec. 28 in the area of Northwest 15 Street and Second Avenue in Overtown, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s alert on Tuesday.

“We didn’t get this information until July when we put out a flyer, but we retracted it right away because the courts had not served the mother with the notice saying that she has to return the daughter to DCF,” Vega said.

In 2021, police officers arrested Vizcarra after a police officer who was off duty at the HCA Florida Mercy Hospital reported she had abandoned Carolina, then two years old, there. Vizcarra later admitted to leaving her daughter there because they were homeless and she didn’t want her daughter to sleep on the streets anymore.

“She did this once before, there’s a possibility she could do it again,” Vega said.

Mother of missing Miami girl accused of previously abandoning her at a hospital​

The mother of a Miami girl who has been missing since late last year was accused two years ago of abandoning her in a hospital.

On Tuesday, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement issued a Missing Child Alert for four-year-old Carolina Rodriguez Vizcarra was last seen in the area of the 200th block of NW 15th Street in Miami. That's near the Lotus House shelter for women and children.

Authorities said the girl could be in the company of her mother, 34-year-old Carolina Vizcarra Olvera.

"Due to an ongoing investigation, the City of Miami Police Department believes Carolina may be in danger of death or serious bodily injury," the FDLE statement said.

In October 2021, Vizcarra Olvera reportedly approached an off -duty Miami police officer and another man at Mercy Hospital around 10 a.m. and asked if they could watch her two-year-old daughter while she went to the restroom.

She then reportedly handed the toddler, and the toddler's Social Security card, to the man and walked away.

According to the incident report, the man followed her and said "You don't have to do this" to which Vizcarra Olvera replied "Leave me alone" as she left the hospital.

The Miami Police Department's Special Victims Unit took custody of the child and the Department of Children and Families was notified.

Just after 5:30 p.m., police received a call that Vizcarra Olvera had returned to the hospital and was looking for her daughter.

When officers tracked her down she told them "It's not like I just left her, it's a hospital and I was worried for her. I was thinking I am about to sleep on the streets, but not her," according to the report.

Vizcarra Olvera was arrested and charged with child abandonment.

So if the girl has not been since before New Year's Eve, why did it take so long for her to be reported missing?

Miami police said they received confirmation of a court order in August that Vizcarra Olvera was in violation of interference of custody.

Mother arrested after leaving toddler with stranger at Florida hospital, police say​

The mother of a young girl who was abandoned Tuesday at a Miami hospital has been located and arrested, authorities confirmed Wednesday morning to WPLG-TV.

Miami police said the woman, identified as Carolina Vizcarra, 33, left her 2-year-old daughter with an off-duty police officer on Tuesday, also handing him her daughter’s Social Security card and telling him she was going to the restroom at Mercy Hospital before walking away.

 

[Guess Who]

I hate to think that they arrested her for what she probably thought was the best thing for her daughter. Yes, she went about doing the right thing the wrong way, but Im not happy they arrested her for it. Now we find out that even after starting her, she got her back? No telling what would happen now.

Missing 4-year-old Miami-Dade girl is safe, living with relatives in Mexico, police say​

A Miami-Dade girl who was the subject of a missing child alert is safe and has been living with her grandparents in Mexico since late last year, police confirmed to CBS News Miami.

A police spokesman said photos showed Carolina Rodriguez Vizcarra, 4, and her grandparents and all seemed in order.

"I have seen photos and have spoken to the grandmother and the girl seems health and safe," police spokesman Mike Vega told CBS News Miami's Peter D'Oench adding that he believed the grandparents intended to adopt the child.

The child's grandmother, Rosario Olivera, spoke to Univision about the situation.

"My granddaughter has been treated for psychological problems," Olivera said. "She has no psychiatric problems. She has no physical problems and we are responsible for her. My granddaughter is in a good place just like she was in the states. My granddaughter is not in danger. We are responsible for her and I know protocol. I am going to call police to let them know that I am responsible for the girl. I don't know where the mother is but she is living near us. Exactly where I can not say. They were living under a bridge and on the streets and as a mother you want better."
